Students' Surveys Prove CNB Works
Changing attiudes and behaviors of teenagers and adults is difficult,
especially whenbehavioral patterns already are established. Schools and
colleges continuously look for strategies that can impact students. The
combination of our evaluation method and feedback from the community
tells us that CNB makes a significant impact on our audiences regarding
drinking and driving and driving while distracted. Parents, teachers,
school administrators and, most importantly, students go out of their
way to express their gratitude for our program.
The following are actual comments about CNB
Widener University, Kathryn C Grentzenberg, Alcohol & Drug Counselor
I found their message to be two-fold: The obvious message is "don't
drink and drive." But there was also another message; one of hope and
the undying human spirit.
I have been working in the alcohol and drug field for 20 years and found
this program to be one of the best I've ever seen. I would give it my
highest recommendation.
Methacton High School, Fred Cummings, Principal
This was as valuable a presentation as I have ever witnessed in 34 years
in education. The speakers and their stories hit our students right
where we were aiming - at their minds and their decision-making. Thanks.
Owen J. Roberts Middle School, Victoria Morgan, MS, Crises Counselor-
SAP Coordinator
Thank you for the powerful and moving program. I believe that the tragic
stories shared by Michael and Randy have impacted the students to make
better decisions when confronted with alcohol and drugs…
Pottstown Sr. High School, Nancy Kupsfirschmidt, Health & Phys. Ed
Teacher
Thank you for an excellent presentation. It was the most attentive I
have ever seen our students. Your presenters are making a difference in
the lives of young people. Keep up the good work.
Merion Mercy Academy, Bill Baillie, Director of Guidance
The parents, students and staff of Merion Mercy Academy appreciated and
benefited from CNB. Nick and Linda have touched our hearts but, more
importantly, have changed our minds regarding alcohol/drug use...

I learned a lot and know that I will never take drugs, drink and drive
or get into a car with someone who is drunk…The program helped me think
about how serious it is to know who you are drivingwith…
Merion Mercy Academy, students
...life changing, could happen to anyone…
…the actual person affected was before my eyes.
…raised my awareness of the consequences of drinking and the effect on
the whole family.
…one bad decision could affect my entire life.
…effective because it showed the results of bad choices. Family
response!
…Linda's talk made me feel she could be me. It made me sad.
…true stories have the most effect on students.
Pottstown Middle School, students
…I will use this information in the future to help me make the best
decision possible for not only myself but for others…
…The Cruisin' Not Boozin' Program was very helpful to me. I think it
should be presented to all schools and as well as to adults…
